By Alexey Sukachev

According to Yuri Ruban, the head of Donetsk-based Union Boxing Promotions, the newly crowned WBA regular welterweight champion Vyacheslav Senchenko (29-0, 20 KOs), 31, may defend his title for the first time in the USA. “We are currently negotiating with [American] promoters to bring Vyacheslav to the States and to put him in the same card with WBA super champion “Sugar” Shane Mosley with a hope for their partial unification, which will be the first ever fight of such type with the Ukrainian fighter taking his part in. If the agreement isn’t reached in ten days, we shall look for other opportunities also overseas,” was quoted Ruban by URA-Inform.Donbass media agency. “We are not planning a rematch against Yuri Nuzhnenko as there was no such clause in the contract for their first fight. K2 East representatives have already asked us about this possibility but we tend to reject their offer,” commented Yuri Ruban.
